Cricket is a not just a sports, but a passion in India. Like any other sports league, the major stakeholders like the organizing community, broadcasting agencies, sponsors, franchises, investors, and players receive huge monetary rewards, but the real backbone of any sports league i.e the FANS are left behind or have limited incentivization options.Through PNL, we aim to incentivize sports geeks for their knowledge and passion.
Some of the problems addressed:-
Limited options to incentivize users for consuming sports.
Limited innovative ways for fans to capitalize on fav players’ performances.
Limited web3 options, with a high barrier of entry.
There were a few challenges we ran into, fortunately, we were able to overcome them all.
Initially we just had a shady plot, and it took us considerable time to carve out a viable business model and develop a robust model for the sports ecosystem, as we genuinely want to build consumer facing application and have real users coming onto our platform and using it.
For the tech side, we took a considerable amount of time to decide on the tech stack we are going to use for the project
For authentication we pivoted from Moralis, different packages to finally using Rainbow Kit.
For backend we started using Moralis only to figure out later for the variety of data we need to store and the customization we need it'll be better to go with MongoDB.
The real struggle was integrating the frontend, backend, and smart contracts. It took a lot of days and nights to fix the bugs and finally make it work.
None of us are designers. So, had to learn it on the go.
Faced many more challenges - should have documented it for this day!
